"Every Word I Sing (Is a Lie)" is the first official music video from UK-based Folk rock n' roll band The Portlands. The EP "Noctilucent" is officially available for download and purchase beginning June 11th 2012.

The four track EP, produced by Jerry Donahue (Fairport Convention, The Gathering, Elton John) has already gained great acclaim from a wealth of DJs and magazine reviews, and with a feature on the amazingly supportive BlankTV, the band hopes it will be the vehicle that drives them further into the heart of the music community.

Dook Dootson, lead singer / guitarist says: "After recording our last EP in New York, we wanted to bring this one closer to home – however, it was a call from Jerry Donahue that ended us with another American producer!! We did record all the parts in England though and we were glad to be able to blend our roots with Jerry's creativity and passion."

Tim Shaw of Rock FM / Kerrang said of it: "Amazing, these guys have got a totally unique sound which in a world awash with very similar sounding music is great!"

Michelle Hussey of BBC Manchester says: "Every time I hear about The Portlands] on the live circuit, there seems to be a real buzz. There seems to be a real appreciation and following of what they do."

With the release of this new EP, a German tour in October, national radio play and a 5th date at Manchester academy as well as a string of other UK dates, the band intend to work themselves to the bones to really carve their own name into the music scene.
